Synopsis:
Thoughts:
The book took an odd turn, but I enjoyed it. It was unexpected, but with the wrap up at the end, not that far fetched (for a thriller novel of course).
Recommend?
Yes, I would recommend this book to people who enjoyed the Netflix series. I like how the show diverged from the original books' plots and became its own thing (I think Netflix did good with making-it-for-TV). I would also recommend this to anyone who likes a dark, 1st person narrator. The author has a way of writing like a total incel but making it just funny enough to be able to read it. But seriously, You will hate Joe while reading this book, he's gross.
